Moving over to a new computer

Question

I am buying a new Imac so will need to move my LRC phootgraphs over to it.

I see that I cannot have my Adobe Login open on two computers at the same time, so I have no idea then how I will move my photos over. If I have my login open on my existing computer to load all my photos, how do I then download and install LRC on my new computer?

I use Time Machine backup on my MAC.

So plese advise how I should move all my phootgrpahs over to my new computer.

The Creative Cloud should allow you to be logged into two computers. I do it all time (moving among my main computer and three test machines). If the Creative Cloud is not allowing that, please post a full-resolution screenshot (not a phone pic) of the entire LR or Creative Cloud window including any messages that seem to indicate otherwise. Posting the entire window can give useful clues.

For moving to the new computer, I highly recommend this free e-book that covers all the details and questions you might have:
